[LU-18249] RPM: Migrate ofed (ofa_kernel modules) requires to MOFED o2iblnd module package

• Type: Bug
• Resolution: Fixed
• Priority: Minor
• Fix Version/s: Lustre 2.17.0
• Severity: 3
• Assignee: Shaun Tancheff

Description

The current RPM packaging build for MOFED places an external dependency requirement on kmod-mlnx-ofa_kernel / mlnx-ofa_kernel-kmp for all the lustre packages.

In the case of user-space packages there should be no direct dependency on the 3rd party OFED, it should only apply to the actual kernel module package that requires MOFED.

This enables the use case where build servers build with an external MOFED and in-kernel users can install the distributed rpms and choose the in-kernel package with out hitting a MOFED requires.
